If you’re like me, then your time is precious. You don’t have a minute to waste during the day. In fact, you often wish that there were more than just 24 hours in a day. As a wife, mother, author, blogger and business owner, I am constantly trying to buy time! Therefore, my goal has always been to work smarter, not harder. Finding and coming up with quick recipes that I can make for my family has always been at the top of my list of things to do. Not only is there hardly any preparation time involved in making stuffed turkey peppers, it’s also healthy and delicious. That alone is a great combination and worth trying out!
